The translations for the first portion of this video were provided by Elin. She's also quick to add that B&B have similar sounding voices here so some of the names might be out of place. Thank you for your honesty Elin and thanks again for these translations!

"UNDER MY SUN"

Benny: Would it be radical to take it away now? (almost inaudible)
Bjorn: Huh?
Benny: Would it be radical to remove it?
Bjorn: Which One?
Benny: " Under My Sun "
Bjorn: Yes, but it's not that one now is it?
Benny: Yes.
Bjorn: But it says " SOS " on my...
Agnetha: No...
Bjorn: That's right, it doesn't....
Bjorn: Removing it? It would be a good and radical move....
Anni-Frid: How come?
Benny: But let us at least record it as it is.....
Anni-Frid: Do you mean it wouldn't be in?
Benny: This program sounds a bit to long doesn't it?
Agnetha: Yeah...
Benny: And it feels a bit unsteady....
Agnetha: Why can't we skip it then?
Benny: But lets record as we have learned....
Bjorn: We can play it for a while...
Agnetha: Why is that!?! HaHa...
Bjorn: It's easy to remove....
Agnetha" We don't want to!

(One or both of the girls are talking but it's inaudible)

Agnetha :"....Leave my love alone...rubberball man....under my sun..."

*Whistling*

Benny: Ok?! " La Paloma Blanca ...." haha.
Bjorn: Could I get some guitars here...
Bjorn: Ok, 1,2....Tune them up....
Unknown: Ok....


I live my love alone
I don't hide it
So far I've ever known is to be fire,
That the water can't quell
Now everything you told
You can't hide it
Now everybody's gonna take you higher
Then the truth is revealed

You are the one
You're the new star
Under my sun
Second to none
You're the true star
Under my sun
There is no way I will let
This moment pass me by
Listen to me now
Set yourself free now
You are the one
You're the one star
Under my sun

I live my love alone
I don't hide it
So far I've ever known is to be fire
That the water can't quell
You're in a danger zone
You can't hide it
So let your body try to take you higher
Let your dreams become real

You are the one
You're the new star under my sun
Second to none
You're the true star
Under my sun
There is no way I will
Let this moment pass me by
Listen to me now
Set yourself free now
You are the one
You're the new star
You are the one
You're the new star
You are the one
You're the new star
Under my sun
Second to none
You're the true star
Under my sun
There is no way I will
Let this moment pass me by
Listen to me now
Set yourself free now
You are the one

You're the one star
Under my sun (so let you're body try to take you higher let your dreams become real)
You're the one star under my sun
So let your body take you higher let your dreams become real.

El primer documental sobre ABBA fue ABBA-dabba-dooo!! en 1976. Se presentaron breves entrevistas con los cuatro miembros juntos y por separado (todos con cara dulce, alegre y fascinados) y videoclips hechos especialmente para este programa, así como un mini-concierto en frente a una audiencia. Stig es también entrevistado brevemente y se muestra tocando y cantando parte de "Tivedshambo" con una guitarra acústica.

The first real documentary about ABBA was this Swedish treat from 1976. It featured short interviews with all four members together and individually (all looking fresh-faced, happy and fantastic) and film clips especially made for this programme as well as a mini-concert in front of an audience. Stig is also interviewed briefly and is shown playing and singing part of "Tivedshambo" on acoustic guitar.

bio:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agnetha_F%C3%A4ltskog

IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0299611/bio

Es el año 1962. Agnetha Fältskog está echada en la cama en su habitación de Jönköping. Tiene doce años. Un tocadiscos de plástico amarillo con los altavoces en la tapa toca Mr Lonely de Bobby Vinton. Cuando termina esta canción, Agnetha cambia a Bye bye Birdie o Save all the kisses de Ann-Margreth.

Cuando no está echada en la cama escuchando música, está sentada delante del espejo haciendo ademanes, tarareando una canción de Connie Francis o de algún otro ídolo.

"Mi adolescencia estuvo marcada por mucha música, dentro de mí y a mi alrededor. Si no componía música propia, la escuchaba o cantaba con una orquesta de baile. Al rememorar me doy cuenta de las profundas huellas que esto dejó en mí. Agradezco a los artistas y las canciones lo que me han dado. Las impresiones que me han producido sin haberlo pensado ni sido consciente de ello. Ahora, cuando escucho a estos artistas, me doy cuenta del trabajo que hay detrás de estas canciones aparentemente sencillas. Fue en mi encuentro con ellas que aprendí a cantar en inglés. Fue allí donde establecí las bases".

Luego, a finales de los años 60, realizó una carrera en solitario con numerosos éxitos de composición propia. Cuando se fundó Abba a principios de los 70, Agnetha Fältskog era una artista consagrada que, entre otros, había conseguido un gran éxito interpretando a María Magdalena en el montaje sueco de Jesus Christ Superstar. El día 6 de abril de 1974 Abba ganó el concurso de Eurovisión en Brighton con Waterloo. El resto es, como suele decirse, historia.

Con posterioridad a la disolución de Abba, Agnetha Fältskog ha editado tres álbumes en solitario: Wrap Your Arms Around Me en 1983, Eyes of a Woman en 1985 y I Stand Alone en 1987.

Parece algo más que una coincidencia el hecho de que My Colouring Book (2004), el primer álbum de Agnetha Fältskog en 17 años, se publique exactamente 30 años después de la gran consagración internacional.

When you were lonely, you needed a man
Someone to lean on, well I understand
It's only natural
But why did it have to be me
Nights can be empty, nights can be cold
So you were looking for someone to hold
That's only natural
But why did it have to be me

I was so lonesome, I was blue
I couldn't help it, it had to be you and I
Always thought you knew the reason why
I only wanted a little love affair
Now I can see you are beginning to care
But baby, believe me
It's better to forget me

Men are the toys in the game that you play
When you get tired, you throw them away
That's only natural
But why did it have to be me
Falling in love with a woman like you
Happens so quickly, there's nothing to do
It's only natural
But why did it have to be me

I was so lonesome, I was blue
I couldn't help it, it had to be you and I
Always thought you knew the reason why
I only wanted a little love affair
Now I can see you are beginning to care
But baby, believe me
It's better to forget me

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cp5hvB_H-YQ


Lyrics:

He stands towering over me beside my bed
Losing his head
Tells me I must take him seriously
Droning on the usual way
He's such a clever guy
And I wonder should I laugh or cry

He's (he's) dressed (dressed) in the striped pajamas that I bought
Trousers too short
Gives (gives) me (me) all his small philosophy
Carries on the way he does
And me I get so tired
And I wonder should I laugh or cry
High and mighty his banner flies
A fool's pride in his eyes
Standing there on his toes to grow in size
(All I see is)
All I see is a big balloon
Halfway up to the moon
He's wrapped up in a warm and safe cocoon
Of an eternal lie
So should I laugh or cry

Strange (strange) how (how) dangerously indifferent I have grown
Cold as a stone
No (no) more (more) pain where there was pain before
Far away he rambles on, I feel my throat go dry
And I wonder should I laugh or cry

High and mighty his banner flies
A fool's pride in his eyes
Standing there on his toes to grow in size
(All I see is)
All I see is a big balloon
Halfway up to the moon
He's wrapped up in a warm and safe cocoon
Of an eternal lie
So should I laugh or cry

AGNETHA: THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL









































http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=92cwKCU8Z5c

Abba - The Winner Takes It All


VIDEO AND INFO:


http://www.youtube.com/user/abbafanglosuk
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zD7d02tEzNE

Abba visited Paris on October 21-22 1980 to appear on the Stars tv show at the Pavillon Baltard in Nogent, which was broadcast on October 25. They performed The Winner Takes It All and Super Trouper after host Michel Drucker interviewed famous Italian actress Gina Lollobrigida, who asked Frida a couple of questions at the end.
The Winner Takes It All was recorded on June 6 1980, and had the working title "The Story Of My Life". It was released as a single on July 21 1980. It reached #1 in Belgium (2 months), Ireland, South Africa, Holland and UK and made the top 10 in another 14 countries. It was voted Britain's favorite break-up song in 2006.
Bjorn went home with a tape of the backing track to write the lyrics. The layers of French chanson suggested something melodramatic and emotional. On this night Bjorn opened a bottle of Scotch whisky and drank freely during the writing process. "I was drunk" he recalled "and the whole lyric came to me in a rush of emotion in one hour". Tears flowed in the recording studio after Agnetha recorded her lead vocal. She called The Winner Takes It All "the best of all Abba songs. The lyrics are deeply personal, and the music is unsurpassed. Singing it was like acting a part. I mustn't let my feelings take over. It was quite a while afterwards before I realised that we made a small masterpiece."
Benny recalls "As a melody its the simplest ever. There are only two different melody lines in it that are repeated throughout the whole song, and yet I think we managed to avoid a feeling of repetition. The song includes a lot of emotion and their is a counterpoint thing going on with the vocals in the backing track. That's the Brian Wilson influence. Counterpoint harmony, thats what the Beach Boys did all the time and what I always liked a lot."
Bjorn admits the lyrics were inspired by the heartbreak with Agnetha, but says the basis of the song "is the experience of a divorce, but it's fiction. There wasn't a winner or a loser in our case. A lot of people think it's straight out of reality, but it's not". The couple decided to separate in late 1978, and Agnetha moved out of their home on Christmas night December 25 1978. In January 1979 they filed for divorce, which was finalised in June 1980.
Agnetha and Bjorn explained the situation in an exclusive interview with Swedish newspaper Expressen on January 16 1979.
Agnetha: "What has happened only concerns the two of us. There's no point talking about what went wrong with our marriage. The fact is that Bjorn and myself can no longer live together."
Bjorn: "Its important to say this is an amicable divorce, if you can call it that. In the beginning it was all very romantic and we were in love. But after we got married bit by bit we began to move apart. Our tastes and opinions started to differ more and more. We thought that a second child would bring us closer together.
Agnetha: "Christian doesn't know about what's going on because he's too young but Linda understands. In the end the three of us sat down to talk about it. Its almost a month since we separated and I think she prefers to see that her two parents are happier now. And anyway I only live 7 minutes away from Bjorn. The news isn't a surprise to Benny and Frida because they're close to us and see how we work."
Bjorn: "Its not very nice to talk about all this in public. Which is why we won't be talking about our divorce any more in the future like we have done here. Its important that we stress that Abba is not going to break up. The group means so much to us."

Music / Lyrics: Benny Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus
Lead Vocal: Agnetha

I don't wanna talk
About the things we've gone through
Though it's hurting me
Now it's history
I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play

The winner takes it all
The loser standing small
Beside the victory
That's her destiny

I was in your arms
Thinking I belonged there
I figured it made sense
Building me a fence
Building me a home
Thinking I'd be strong there
But I was a fool
Playing by the rules

The gods may throw a dice
Their minds as cold as ice
And someone way down here
Loses someone dear
The winner takes it all
The loser has to fall
It's simple and it's plain
Why should I complain

But tell me does she kiss
Like I used to kiss you
Does it feel the same
When she calls your name
Somewhere deep inside
You must know I miss you
But what can I say
Rules must be obeyed

The judges will decide
The likes of me abide
Spectators of the show
Always staying low
The game is on again
A lover or a friend
A big thing or a small
The winner takes it all

I don't wanna talk
If it makes you feel sad
And I understand
You've come to shake my hand
I apologize
If it makes you feel bad
Seeing me so tense
No self-confidence

But you see
The winner takes it all
The winner takes it al
